I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but EVERYONE is on Facebook. According to recent estimates, Facebook has about 500 million users! The modern consumer is spending a lot of time on Facebook, and they are using their mobile devices to do it. Sumal Mandal, managing director of a large venture capital firm that tracks tech companies, says in a recent article in USA Today, “the user is changing faster than companies can keep up.” The facts are clear. In the same article, Mark Zukerberg, CEO of Facebook, declares, “When the world is moving and changing fast, the WORST RISK is to do nothing.”
Maybe as an agency owner, you’ve been standing on the sidelines watching these changes occur and seeing your customer base erode. What Zukerberg is saying is, “change or die.” As a business owner, you really don’t have a choice. We all need to embrace the fact that the strategies that once worked are no longer working. The pace of change is accelerating. It’s a fact of business that MUST be embraced sooner rather than later.
It’s not just about where the modern consumer is spending their time, it’s also about what attracts them. Jim Collins, author of Good to Great, says, “If you define your company by the product, it dies. You have to define it as a great culture that can create great products”.
You see, it’s not just about what you’re selling. The Internet has provided instant access to information, and for that reason, products have become commodities. If you don’t believe me, just look at one of the biggest players in the auto insurance market. Their unique selling proposition includes a gecko and an idea that you COULD save 15%. They understand that the modern consumer not only wants to get a great price on something, they also want to be entertained in the process.
